Approved Supervisors - Supervisor Status Scheme

The Supervisor Status Scheme is aimed at assisting approved panel members in creating capacity, whilst affording professional development opportunities to junior members of the legal sector. 

The practitioners on this page have been designated as Approved Supervisors, who can now to engage practitioners with up to 2 years post-admission experience to attend court for a wider range of appearances for matters covered by a grant of aid under the Scheme.

These practitioners are Approved Supervisors under the Scheme. We have included the relevant panels to help potential supervisees who are not presently members of those panels to identify Approved Supervisors who can supervise them on grants of aid for those matter types.
